The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1825: Chapter 1825: Success Depends on Human Effort (3)

”But the assassin is dead.” Yang Ruxin frowned, ”Dead, no evidence.” If alive, perhaps she could find a way to make him speak, but against the dead, she was powerless.

”Although he’s dead, his identity is a breakthrough point.” Gu Qingheng’s chin rested on Yang Ruxin’s shoulder, ”As long as we find out which organization he belonged to, we can trace who hired him, following the clues.”

”What did you discover?”

Gu Qingheng pulled out a cloth bag from his bosom, opened it, revealing a blood-stained dagger: ”This is the dagger that killed Xiao’er.” As he spoke, he pointed at the emblem on it.

Yang Ruxin frowned. The dagger had a red droplet etched on it, more precisely, a droplet of blood.

There is an organization in the martial world called the ”Blood Alliance,” existing for decades, training all its people to be die-hard assassins. As long as someone can pay, if the Blood Alliance accepts a mission, no matter how many die or how long it takes, they will complete the task.

Weapons of the Blood Alliance assassins are all etched with the red blood droplet.

”But the Blood Alliance is an assassin organization, profit-driven; they surely have confidentiality rules.” Yang Ruxin frowned, ”How can they betray their clients?”

”Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” Gu Qingheng smiled mysteriously.

Yang Ruxin frowned, looking at him.

”Did I ever tell you I have a master?” Gu Qingheng raised his brows slightly.

”Changyang Master?”

Gu Qingheng nodded: ”Gu Qiao and these thirteen hidden guards were originally thirteen orphans taken in by my master. Initially, he just wanted to nurture them and give them a future. Later, after he took me as his disciple, he made these people my right arm...”

”Could your master have some news? Does he know the Blood Alliance well?”

”Half a month ago, Gu Qiao received a message from my master saying he wanted to visit his disciple’s wife. But Gu Qiao sent a message back, telling my master you were in Beijing...” Gu Qingheng touched his chin, ”Most likely, he’ll be here soon.” When my master sends a message, he usually arrives within a month, ”He is familiar with the affairs of the martial world, and many people owe him favors, so if my master is willing, he should be able to find out...”

Yang Ruxin nodded. With that, she had nothing to worry about, and then casually mentioned Cui Fangfang’s situation.

”Daya?” Gu Qingheng was taken aback for a moment but quickly calmed down, ”Nothing surprising.”

”That girl has a big heart.” Yang Ruxin sighed, ”Only didn’t expect she’d win over Old Madam Cui, truly a step to the sky... As long as she behaves well, it’s fine, but if she dares stir up trouble, I definitely won’t let her off...”

”The Cui Family is loyal and virtuous; as long as not contradicted, they can remain aristocratic for generations. The Cuis have many male heirs; among them, six brothers in the younger generation, with the eldest grandson Cui Hou, is extremely outstanding. Though only ten, he’s already skilled in both literature and martial arts, completely surpassing his predecessors, even rumors saying Duke Cui might directly pass the title to his grandson...”

”Are you worried Daya might set her sights to harm such an exceptional person?”

”Daya has deep schemes; it’s undeniable she wishes for a good life.” Gu Qingheng laughed, ”She has no blood ties with the Cui Family, and in a few years, when it’s time for marriage talks, what family could compare to the Cui Family?”
